• Problem Windows/Bootcamp Partition with unsupported Mac (iMac 21.5 "mid-2011)

  I tried many door routes stealth to install Windows 10 on my iMac (21.5 inch, mid-2011; 1 TB SATA disk), which seems to be not taken in charge by Apple. Whenever I try to use Bootcamp to try to establish a partition, in the end it cuts and force restarts my computer.

  I decided to make my own (150 GB, FAT MS-DOS) partition and a bootable USB stick with all the files .iso on it. The bootable USB key works very well and can get into Boot EFI without problem. The score, according to the EFI boot and Windows Installer, "has a table of MBR partition...". [and] Windows can only be installed on GPT disks. »

  I tried to format the partition to NTFS by using the command-line Windows, such as proposed in the link below, but after downloading the Tuxera NTFS file to move the .iso to the Windows partition image file (I guess to make its own bootable drive) the drive itself is not started.

  In fact, the Windows partition came not in the start screen (hosting option after reboot OR allowing the computer initiate by itself).

  After trying to format this partition using the Windows command line, Windows begins to remove it and provides the same error message. After some research, I found that the partitions are hybrid and need for special maintenance. I tried to use gpart, but when trying to convert ONLY TPG, took place the message in a terminal:

  Caveat! Main partition table overlaps the first partition of 32 blocks!

  You need to remove this partition or resize in another utility.

  Caveat! Secondary partition table overlaps the last partition of

  33 blocks!

  You need to remove this partition or resize in another utility.

  I activated the command 'csrutil disable' in Recovery Mode in order to bypass the Protection of the integrity of the system, I found that some users of El Capitan were problems with this.

  I was not able to proceed to the question since this last error and I'm not sure how to proceed, especially because I don't want to lose my data on my Mac hard drive. If anyone knows any information on how I should proceed, please let me know!

  1. you use Boot EFI on a preUEFI computer.

  2. to help TO do a FAT32 partition will also create a hybrid MBR. Please after the release of

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  3. you need not of Tuxera, because Windows install has already the ability to convert FAT to NTFS.

  4. your built-in optical drive works? If so, your W10 ISO burn to a physical DVD and try to follow the standard installation of the BCA.

• 10 Windows Bootcamp Partition encryption

  Hey all!

  First of all, thanks for any help that anyone can provide!

  I've been digging around online for any help regarding encrypt the partition 10 Windows on a MacBook Pro.

  From what I've read online, it seems as if the OSX partition is encrypted with FileVault. the bootcamp partition will break (failed to connect to Windows plus). If the BootCamp partition is encrypted by BitLocker; the OSX partition will break (unable to connect to the OSX partition).

  If the statements above are met, the more desirable (and apparently the only viable solution for my situation) is to recreate the BootCamp partition to be primary (take up more HARD disk space, leave 5 to 10 GB for OS x), install Windows 10, encrypt the drive with BitLocker and never connect to OS x again.

  This line of thinking is right? It's a bit difficult to find information about this specific set of scenarios.

  To help, here are my requirements "in stone":

  • I need Windows 10, cannot work without it
  • I would like to OSX, but can do without them.
  • I can't change the laptop or hardware, the MBP is my only option
  • I need to encrypt my daily driver must be

  Bump! Anyone able to offer some insight?

• Cannot delete the Windows 7 partition

  Recently, my PC has a major problem with Boot Mgr (namely that he could not find it) once I had solved this problem, I was unable to use the partition of Windows 7, so I want to remove it. However, windows Vista won't let me say that the partition is in use.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• Wizard BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  How is it assistant BootCamp 6.0.1 running on El Capitan 10.11.5 installs single partition BootCamp on the disc Fusion consisting of 128 SSD part G SSD and 3 TB of HARD drive on an iMac (retina 5K, 27 inches, end of 2014), but not the part of the HARD drive?

  This has two questions:

  1 capacity of SSDS faster for Fusion drive has been reduced. Therefore less effective for the reader of the merger. For example if I need to create a partition of 80G for my windows bootcamp partition, only 48 G will be left in the drive of the merger.

  2. ability of the bootcamp windows partition becomes very limited, cannot be greater than 120 G.

  3. even when I try to fuse out of the drive of fusion in the 128 G SSD and 3 TB of HARD disk, and then run the BootCamp assistant to create the bootcamp partition start from scratch to reinstall El Capitan only on the HARD drive (without drive Fusion), it won't let me do anything, it just shows an error that says something like "a person has created additional partitions on this drive please select. another disc. But there is nothing else to choose.

  Before my (5 K, 27 inches, end of 2014 retina) to El Capitan Yosemite, I was able to use the previous version of the wizard BootCamp 5.x to create the partition, bootcamp on the drive of the merger. And it will be divided in the fuser unit in two and insert the Bootcamp partition (with the size I chose, which can go up to 1 TB) between two partitions of MAC OSX.

  The disk partitions resulting from it, will be the partition MAC OS x on the SSD, the partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #1, partition MAC OS x on the HARD drive partition #3.

  Then there is the BootCamp partition on the HARD drive partition #2.

  Is there a way to get what I need?

  That is what has been described in this notice of two canoes?

  Installation of Windows on a Boot Camp partition on a drive of TB Fusion 3

  n-on-a-3-TB-fusion-drive http://twocanoes.com/Winclone/support/installing-Windows-on-a-Boot-Camp-partitio

  Thank you.

  After having worked on those weeks, I realized that I need very painfully (by first going back to Yosemite and bootcamp 5 to escape all the limitations of El Capitan and BootCamp 6) I want to share here. Someone at - it other smarter solutions welcome.

  Note these steps and mentioned drivers only work for my version of iMAC, retina 5K late 2014. If you have other material, please search on the web to see which driver will work first. And all of these steps are destructive and assumed that you first take backup. It is only shared for interest only. Readers will have to bear your own risk.

  A. take backup

  1. take a backup completes my iMac Fusion Drive using Time Machine. Then restart with a Yosemite USB installation and select Terminal from the menu on the top bar.

  B. fuse out of the merger in two physical disks drive: SSD + HDD

  1. in the terminal, type the commands in show what the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the disc fusion)

  Cs diskutil list

  2. in the terminal, type commands for the fuse of the fuser unit and separate them to an SSD and a HARD drive.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the drive of the merger. There are many articles in this community on how this could be done,

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  This should finish within 30 minutes. If you have taken more time, this means that your reader of fusion has been altered somehow.

  I hit this issue too.  To use this command to remove the fusion drive hung up, and I need to do the hard to scramble a few sections of data in the hard disk partition table using the controls to tell the OSX this hard drive is a new without partitions:

  Cat >/dev/random /dev/disk0 (where/dev/disk0 is the SSD)

  and repeat for disk1/dev/disk1 which is the HARD drive in my case).

  This command will not return anything, but expect to press Ctrl-Z to end after 1 minute.

  2 create independent partitions (non-fusionend) for the installation of OSX.

  Borne Terminal output, and select disk utility, in disk utility, select the drive to HARD disk (and not on the partition), you will see the error message and you will be asked if you want to fix the fuser unit, click on ignore. Then wipe the HARD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"HARD drive".

  3. Repeat step 2, and then erase the SSD drive to create a single 'extended OSX journaled"named"SSD ".

  C. install on the HARD disk as drive didier autonomous not fusion.

  1. go to Yosemite install screen and proceed with the installation of a clean copy of Yosemite to the iMAC. then connect you.

  D. use BootCamp Yosemite f5 to install windows.

  1. launch Yosemite bootcamp.

  2. check the two checkboxes for creating the USB drive to install windows 7 or a later version, and to download the windows supports the Apple software.  Do not click on the last box to install or remove windows pie creating real bootcamp partition again.

  3. it may take several hours to complete this function of your internet b/w and also performance of your USB drive.

  4. If you install Windows 7 (like me), then the downloaded drivers will not work for you, this will cause the issue of the device driver appleDSS.sys does not like this driver and others are too recent for windows 7 to use.  Also, your keyboard and mouse may not work even if you try to plug in a USB external keyboard or a mouse. You need to replace the drivers downloaded by others (the Boot Camp 5.1.5769 drivers that I find in this link: Software Support of Boot Camp 5.1.5769.) (Note: this driver is material specific only works for my iMAC model).  Once you have downloaded it, copy the two files in the root directory of the USB installation to replace the original ones. It's specific and material available for download somewhere on the Apple Site.

  -From the Finder, delete the $WinPE$ and the Boot Camp of the FLASH PLAYER files.

  -Expand the old drivers for Boot Camp 5.1.5769 (two records and another file) on your desktop.

  -Copy the $WinPE$ and records of Boot Camp in the FLASH PLAYER.

  5. open Boot Camp Assistant again and only select the third option, install Windows 7.

  It will show you the screen to select what installation disk, select HARD drive.

  Then drag the slide bar to select the size of the Bootcamp partition for windows you want, knowing that there is a restriction for windows installed using training camp on a MAC that the last byte of the BootCamp partition must reside in the first byte of the 2.2 T of each physical hard drive.

  For my case, I need only 500G for bootcamp and leaving behind 1.7 to for my MAC OSX partition immediately after the bootcamp partition and an another 0.8 T MAC OSX partition after him. 1.7 TB and the partition of MAC OS x 0.8 TB well exploited in the meantime bootcamp partition, will be merged into a fusion drive by Bootcamp. Thus, you will end up with total 2.5 TB of disk space in a logical drive - fuser.

  Go to this link for more details on this subject: n-on-a-3-tb-fusion-drive http://twocanoes.com/winclone/support/installing-windows-on-a-boot-camp-partitio

  6. continue the process to partition the hard drive, then it will restart automatically in windows installation mode, install windows.

  7. once the installation is complete, check that windows is functioning correctly.

  E. Si you want to upgrade to windows 10 Windows 7.

  1 if you plan to upgrade to windows 10, you'll find that the windows IE v.8 7 is no longer works and had many problems to load the page.  Then when you try to download the latest version of Internet Explorer, you get an error that you need at least windows 7 SP1 to support the last IE.  Life is too complicated, just download the google Chrome browser, then search for download windows 10 and then run the Microsoft valuation tool to upgrade.

  2 but before upgrade you, unplug all your MAC USB drives, otherwise, you will find that, after having spent an hour downloading the windows 10 software, the upgrade will fail with the error "/ dynamicupdate...» ». It is an inexplicable mistake that no one seems to understand why. There are articles with proven results that the removal of all USB drives before running the windows 10 upgrade tool will correct this problem.

  F. reinstall OSX El Capitan

  Once your target windows system (if windows 7, windows 8 or windows 10) works very well.  You can continue to create again your Fusion drive and reinstall OSX El Capitan.

  1. Insert the install of OSX Yosemite rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type the command 'diskutil list cs' and you should see nothing to prove that there are no existing fusion drive yet.

  6 type the 'diskutil list' command to list all disks and partitions.

  The SSD has two partitions, the/dev/disk0s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk0s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD around 121 G.

  The HARD drive has two partitions, the/dev/disk1s1 of EFI (209 MB) partition and the other/dev/disk1s2 of OSX partition we created in step B above, called SSD.

  G. delete the logical storage of nucleus on the HARD disk drive and it refuses with the DSS to form a merger with faster performance disc

  1. Insert the install of OSX El Capitan rear USB to the iMAC, and then select Restart Windows, or stop, and then turn the MAC once again.

  2. When you hear the ringing tone, press on and hold down the option key for 10 seconds. Then you release.

  3. on the selection screen, select start Yosemite OSX install drive.

  4. after starting, do not proceed to install OSX El Capitan again. But select Terminal from the menu bar.

  5. in the terminal, type orders for (to show what are the logical volume group ID and the ID of the logical Volume of the logical drive). You should see the logical volume to basic storage group created using two partitions on the hard drive, 1.7 TB and TB 0.8 created when we run the Yosemite Bootcamp to install windows.

  Cs diskutil list

  6. in the terminal, type commands to delete logical drives from basic storage.  Note: All data will be destroyed in the logical drive.

  diskutil cs deleteVolume Logical Volume ID

  CS diskutil remove logical Volume Group ID

  7. tap "diskutil list" command lists all the resulting partitions. You should see that the HARD drive has the following partitions.

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  0: GUID_partition_scheme * GB 121,3 disk0

  1: disk0s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

  2: Apple_HFS GB SSD 121.0 disk0s2

  0: GUID_partition_scheme * 3.0 to disk1

  1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1

  2: Apple_HFS 1.7 Untitled TB disk1s2

  3: disk1s3 Apple_Boot Recovery 650.0 MB HD

  4: Microsoft database BOOTCAMP 503.0 GB disk1s4

  5: Apple_HFS 801,4 Untitled GB disk1s5

  8 type the following commands to create the logical volumes group, named "myLVG" (or the name) of fuser using the usable for OSX to the SSD and HDD partitions.

  diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2 disk1s5

  Note: Mark the group id of logical volume shown in the results.

  In my case, I want to book the last partition as standalone partition disk1s5 no-fusionend, so I can use it to raise the back, or format it in FAT32 to allow the exchange of data between the MAC and boot camp.

  So, I do not understand this last partition in the drive of the merger. in my case, the command that I used is: diskutil cs to create "myLVG" disk0s2 disk1s2

  9 create logical volumes named "Macintosh HD" (or you call it) on the logical volume group we just created for the reader of the merger.

  diskutil createvolume logical volume group ID jhfs cs + 'Macintosh HD' 100%

  10 command "diskutil cs type list" to check the resulting fusion drive created.

  12. There will be a step in the installation ask you if you want to configure as a new computer, or restore from a time machine previous backup. Make your own choices it accordingly.

  13 once OSX El Capitan has been installed and you have finished restoring the data and custom configurations, you can enter the application of preferences to check if you see the icon of the "Startup" disk", and if you choose Startup BootCamp in the next reboot, you should be able to boot up to Windows without pressing and holding the button option when reboot and choose to start windows manually. Also, in windows, you should be able to click on the bootcamp Control Panel and select for a startup to OSX on the next reboot.

  14. one thing to be aware, if you install bootcamp in this way, the boot camp and the GUI utility disk in OSX El Capitan will not be able to adjust your settings. This means, if you need to touch anything or to readjust the size of the partition, you will need to do it again in step A. Alternatively, some how to get started with installing Mac OSX Yosemite USB, then adjust the partitions using similar commands shown in this article or other articles in this community.

  15. yet once please take personal responsibility on damage if you follow the instructions in this article.

  • If I try to use 'Start Up' drive to restart Windows, it does not work, I just get a black screen.
  • Due to the configuration that I can't really afford to reinstall everything on a new partition I would everything white / software installed, install Windows 7, upgrade to 10, reinstall various licenses etc, it would take me 2 days and my schedule does not allow for this.
  • I went through many discussions of the forum here: my background is software/web, no hardware, so the command line is a bit strange for me, but I can follow the instructions I have not successfully updated my "products" but I'm still on a MBP of the retina, the current captain.

  Please help me get out of a mess in that I have unintentionally! Thank you!

• Bootcamp partition is not as boot drive, after running bootcamp to install Windows 10 on MacbookPro 15 "El Capitan running

  Hello

  I'm trying to install 10 Windows on my Macbook Pro. I followed this guide, but I am stuck between steps 3 and 4. In disk utility, I see that the bootcamp partition is created, but it does not appear as boot drive. I also tried to start my mac while pressing the option key, but still it will not show.

  See below for a screenshot that shows the current state of my machine.

  

  

  

  How can I continue to install 10 Windows on my Mac?

  Your BOOTCAMP partition internal not yet have Windows installed on it.  If you're between steps 3 and 4 (the installation procedure standard), your, assistant Boot Camp should automatically rebooting your computer after partitioning, from the installation media (Windows 10 CD), you must have created.  I assume that you already have a Windows 10 installation disk.  Make sure that the disc is inserted when you first enter assistant Boot Camp and you let the computer restart on its own.

  Apple instructions are a bit vague (somehow I'm not surprised).

  Watch (time code 04:26 - 09:15) in next video for instructions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SxA_OsPEgk).

  Good luck.

• Impossible to install 10 Windows on Bootcamp partition

  #1

  Hello! I just tried to install Windows 10 on my Macbook with a 32 GB USB using Bootcamp. Everything was fine until I came to the part where I have to choose the partition where I want to install my Windows 10 and of course I chose the Bootcamp partition, but in fact I couldn't click on 'next' (I was so stupid and don't format it).
  So I just format the Bootcamp partition and when I tried to click 'next' he just told me 'we could not create a new partition or locate an existing one. I went through google and searched all regarding this problem and there are a lot of guys having almost the same or exactly the same 'error' when trying to install 10 Windows on the Bootcamp partition, but nothing has really helped me. I deleted everything except my USB key and someone told me that I should only have 4 partitions or less.
  He shows me the 4 partition but there are two partitions (3) and two partition (1).
  Is this a problem?
  Here is a picture of my diskutil list: https://i.gyazo.com/f554fb8aac609c2420f55f9696fa06a6.pnggiven that English is not my native language, I'm sorry for my bad spelling.
  I hope someone can help me install Windows 10 with Bootcamp! Thank you very much!

  You have a Fusion drive, which is usually not sold on a MacbookPro? You can check model/year your Mac? Please, do not post the serial number of your Mac.

  If you replaced the optical drive to create your own Fusion player, you can run the questions, depending on the year/model of your Mac.

• Invisible BootCamp partition, I can't access or delete!

  So to start with, I try to install 10 Windows from a USB on my computer with bootcamp (I use OS X elcappitan). So, I followed the normal steps for installing windows via bootcamp 10 as get the iso file on my usb key (which is 8 GB) and make the score for her. But after having going through this process (and once I open the installer of windows 10) I get to the part where you have to choose your partition to install windows 10 on and I do not see the "BOOTCAMP" partition.

  

  So I cancel the configuration and return to my main user and when I enter disk utility, THERE AGAIN, I don't see the partition, Bootcamp done for me! It stinks because I put a good 90 GB on my 500 GB hard drive in that partition.

  One thing is that when my bootcamp was just about to finish creating the partition, I received a message for a fraction of a second saying something like "your mac has / restarts unexpectedly" or "without cause." He wasn't there long so I don't take everything, but I want of maybe my mac restarted to "a reason any ' during the last seconds of the creation of the partition, which makes the incomplete partition and/or currupt? If so, and for this reason my 90 GB partition is invisible, how would I be able to find it and remove it to do a fresh reinstall?

  That's what my main hard drive looks like atm... sound literally saying that my Macintosh HD occupies 100% of my HDD 500 GB, yet when you look at how much he was in fact, it is said that it occupies only 409,53 GB of space! Which proves that the Bootcamp partition is STILL too much space on my drive hard but at the same time, not to show. My main goal would be just to delete this 90 GB bootcamp partition entirely.

  

  Im very bored with cela and essentially spent a WHOLE DAY trying to fix it myself with other similar solutions, online. Hope someone could give me a solution or even just something to try to correct this :/

  Thanks for reading my report.

  The alternative method faster, simpler and more secure to reclaim your disk space is

  1 backup OSX and all of your files - use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

  2. boot into Internet recovery (CMD + Opt + R) - OS X: on OS X Recovery - Apple Support .

  3. click on Utilties-> disk utility and erase your entire internal drive.

  4. restoration of OSX and your files - use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .

  This requires another external drive that can accommodate TM backup - backup disks that you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support .

  It takes a while to do it this way, but it is less compared to the diskutil methods labour intensive.

• Bootcamp partition Windows will not start since WinUpdate

  I'm working on a MacMini (mid 2011) on which a bootcamp partition has been installed. I had to work on windows update etc...

  So I did update from our wsus server, and then restart Windows, windows no longer starts. There was a line of white underscore flashing on a black screen.

  I tried to see if the Mac partition (10.7) was able to start. It has been altered too, but I was able to reinstall it.

  __

  on windows, I followed these instructions: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4936761?tstart=0

  To do this, I created a USB bootable key WIN10 (regardless of the Version of the OS in this case), I started on it to access the repair menu. Here, I opened the CMD and had results of the thesis:

  
  x:\sources>cd c:\ 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /Fixmbr 
  
  Operation succeed 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /FixBoot 
  
  Operation succeed 
  
  x:\sources>Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd 
  
  Number of windows installation identified : 1 Add the installation to boot list ? : O 
  
  Asked System Device not found. 
  

  I assumed it was due to drivers for windows compatibility. (something like record of $ $WinPEDriver), but no idea how to put them on my bootcamp partition, previously never worked with bootcamp.

  I should also mention, I tried a classic Windows repair, he told me that my windows partition has been locked. I assumed it was a problem of version of bootcamp. I've updated everything on my mac partition, but he found no update for bootcamp. Right now I'm preparing a bootable usb key with both 'iso' and 'windows compatibility modules' activated with bootcamp assistant.

  I don't know when it happens, but now, when I try to boot on my bootcamp partition, there are only blackscreen (not slider more). But also, my screen flashes as if he finally gets the signal just before the black screen.

  I need your help for:

  -Fixed problem starting Windows partition, OR...

  -Give me a way to get the activation key for the license of the installed windows (without starting it (if it exists)), so I can reinstall it correctly.

  Thanks for the kind help and forgive my bad English.

  Please after the release of the following OSX Terminal commands.

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  sudo dd if = / dev/rdisk0s4 account = 1 2 >/dev/null | hexdump - C

  What version of Windows?

  DiskPart should be used to clear the readonly attributes.

  Bootrec.exe must be used that on C:, otherwise it is written to X:. CD C:\ should be replaced with C: only if you are on the C: drive.

  If you run Diskpart, please after the release of

  list disk

• Bootcamp partition extended, now cannot start Windows

  Hi all, hope you can help. Running Windows 7 on Bootcamp partition. OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 on the other side.

  Needed to make Windows larger partition to install away from port, although comments, not sure that all this pain is worth it. That's what's happened so far:

  1. I enlarged the Bootcamp using disk utility partition

  2 restart the computer and now the Alt key, I could not see the usual option to start the Windows partition.

  3 then I read that I had to go to the preferences system and make my boot drive Bootcamp, I did.

  4 but on reboot, I get the error message "no boot device - insert the diskette and press any".

  5. isn't a step 5. The hope that you could help me find one.

  Thanks in advance for any wisdom.

  How to enlarge a Boot Camp partition is either:

  a. assistant Boot Camp use to remove Windows and refer the reader to a single partition. Then reinstall Windows using Boot Camp Assistant by specifying the size of Boot Camp, that you need for now.

  b. use CampTune, a third-party application, to resize one already set up to the Boot Camp partition.

• Bootcamp error: "the startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition" and Windows recovery partitions

  I have Setup with Bootcamp Windows 8 and then upgrade to Windows 8.1, and then upgrade to Windows 10.

  When I want to restart the training camp that I got the error message: "the startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition.

  According to this page, it is because of Windows recovery partitions added during the 8 to 8.1 migration and 8.1 to 10.

  I check with diskutil and I found 2 partitions of Windows Recovery:

  diskutil list

  / dev/disk0 (internal, physical):

  #: NAME SIZE TYPE IDENTIFIER

  1: disk0s1 EFI EFI 209.7 MB

  Unencrypted

  I tried to delete the Windows Recovery 2 partitions with disk utility tools but the button "-" to remove them were leaving is disabled.

  Is it a good idea to remove these partitions? If yes how?

  1. What is the year/model of your Mac?

  2. you are trying to install a new copy of the W10 or remove the existing installation?

  3. do you have the W8 or installation/upgrade W8.1 had problems before the upgrade of the W10?

• Tried to change the Bootcamp Partition, now I can't load Windows.

  Hello

  After trying to change my Bootcamp partition, I'm more able to start Windows. If I restart and hold option, I get only the Mac drive. However, I can still find the content of my Windows disk in the finder. Please can someone explain how I can get it back?

  I have a Mac running OS X El Capitan 10.11.2. I don't know what other information is needed, so please tell me and I can answer. Thank you very much.

  What changes did you make to the partition of BC? Can you post the output of the following commands in OS X Terminal?

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.
